Number 6 in his opening election
speech tells the citizens that he’s not a number, he’s a person, the
citizens find this hilarious. He goes on to tell them that in some place, at
some time all of them held a position of a secret nature, and had knowledge
that was invaluable to an enemy. Like Number 6 they are there in The Village to
have that knowledge protected or extracted. Unlike Number 6 many of the
citizens have accepted the situation of their imprisonment and will die in The
Village like rotten cabbages. The rest of them have gone over to the side of
their keepers, “Which is which? How many of many of each? Who’s standing beside
you now?”
Clearly it is
difficult to tell, seeing as the people here keep chopping and changing! This
clearly indicates what a clever manipulator of the community such as this,
Number 2 is. Both images are taken during Number 6’s opening speech. And yet the
citizens in the second image are not wearing 6 or 2 rosettes, perhaps they are
representative of the “don’t knows” or undecided voters of the community!
Be seeing you
